Abstract
MAHECHA OVALLE, Andrés. Aproximación sociolingüística a las fórmulas de tratamiento nominales en el contexto comunicativo juvenil. Enunciación [online]. 2020, vol.25, n.2, pp.272-291. ISSN 0122-6339. https://doi.org/https://doi.org/10.14483/22486798.16187.
This paper describes the nominal treatment forms used by young people aged between 13 and 17 who live in Bogota D.C. in three communicative areas: friendship, familiar and social. Data collection it is done through two instruments: spontaneous recording and questionnaire. For the selection of informants, the selective snowball sampling technique was used. The corpus was made up of 30 spontaneous recordings and data collected from the application of 70 questionnaires. The results obtained show that youth communities code aspects such as social distance, power relations, linguistic courtesy and resemantization of lexical items in the nominal treatment forms. Likewise, there is evidence of a variation in treatment according to the context and the participants involved in the communicative act, which contributes to the change or adaptation of the young person’s linguistic behavior. The findings allow us to infer that nominal treatment is a conversational strategy of young people in their daily in interactions.
